For diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), polysomnography (PSG) is used. Use of PSG is gold standard for detection of sleep apnea. This research is basically aimed at detection of sleep apnea from more commonly available physiological signals such as electrocardiogram (ECG) and photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals in any simple bedside multiparameter monitors. Respiratory activity extracted from...
In this paper a cumulant based Teager energy operator (TEO) method is proposed to enhance the morphological features of noisy stress ECG signals which are corrupted with Gaussian noise, and other artifacts like baseline wander. It uses higher order statistical (HOS) cumulants in combination with nonlinear TEO required for the analysis of nonlinear and non stationary signals. Higher order cumulants...
Respiratory signal is usually recorded with techniques like spirometry, pneumography or whole body plethysmography. These techniques require the use of cumbersome devices that may interfere with natural breathing, unmanageable in certain applications such as ambulatory monitoring, stress testing, and sleep studies. Infact, the joint study of cardiac and pulmonary systems is of great interest in most...
Estimation of respiration rates from electrocardiogram (ECG), blood pressure (BP) and photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals would be an alternative approach for obtaining respiration related information. This process is useful in situations when, ECG, BP and PPG but not respiration is routinely monitored or in cases where, the cardiac arrhythmias are to be studied in correlation with respiratory information...
In high risk situations such as cardiac arrhythmias, ambulatory monitoring, stress tests, sleep disorder investigations and post-operative hypoxemia situations, monitoring of respiratory activity would be mandatory. Electrocardiogram (ECG), blood pressure (BP) and photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals can be used for extraction of respiratory activity, and will eventually eliminate the use of additional...
